SPECIALIST TANKS ideal for farmers

R otoTank™ is an owner driven busi- ness with over 35 years’ experience in plastic roto-moulding and resins. The company produces polyethylene tanks that are ideal for the storage of most in- dustrial chemicals, including a wide range of herbicides and fertilisers. The tanks are manufactured using food grade approved resin – the highest quality virgin, UV stabi- lised linear low density polyethylene plastic resin – so they are also suitable for the safe storage of potable water. They are impact resistant, non-corrosive and constructed in a single piece. All polyethylene water and chemical tanks go through a strict quality control procedure and each plastic roto- moulded polyethylene plastic resin product is embossed with a tracking serial number. The products are further backed up by an eight year warranty. With its years of rotation moulding experi- ence RotoTank is able to combine quality products and competitive prices to meet challenges faced by the agricultural market and prides itself on providing solutions that help farmers to remain sustainable during periods of drought and food shortage. For example, horizontal plastic tanks can be used to transport liquid feeds to livestock safely and easily for immediate relief. According to sales manager, Wesley Bemel- man, the strength of the company is that it offers the largest range of locally man-

ufactured, custom de- signed tanks in Africa, which it delivers free of charge to custom- ers throughout South Africa. The company also goes to great lengths to offer advice to clients on how best to make use of these tanks. Says Bemel- man: “Because we deal only in tanks and we do not mass pro- duce them, we take the utmost care to provide our clients with affordable products they can trust”. RotoTank offers a full back-up service in- cluding site visits, general installation assis- tance and specialised additional servicing through its broad range of contacts. With the current drought and the country’s on- going threat of water scarcity, water tanks are an excellent way of collecting rainwa- ter, especially as rainwater harvested from rooves does not require treatment before consumption. On customer request, RotoTank™ will cater for special colour finishes, including marble effect requirements, and can further attach the highest definition moulded on/in patent- ed graphic design signage and decorative detail (MIGS™). b
